In order to resist fear and discouragement, it is necessary that through prayer - through a personal experience of God re-encountered, recognized and loved in prayer - we taste and see how good the Lord is (Psalm 34).

About This Quote

The psalmist shows us that prayer is an ongoing experience of God, not a once-in-a-lifetime event. When we pray, God is with us in a personal experience. He encourages us to continue in prayer so that we can experience the sweetest fruit of all - joy and peace.
